Yeah, that statement filled my heart with lots of joy as well. </sigh>

As Tore pointed out, as we do not have a cross-region transfer policy
yet, we are 100 per cent incompatible with all other regions *right now*,
and 2013-03 is not changing this.

If this working group shold ever start having an interest in a cross-region
transfer policy (there is an open policy proposal for that, 2012-02, which
is hanging in limbo because of massive disinterest(!) from this community)
it would not be hard to add provisions to *that* proposal to ensure the
necessary compatibility.  For example, if one wants to permit transfers
from the ARIN region and ARIN at that time still insists on having a
needs-based policy on the receiving end, it would be possible to have
a policy on our side that gives receiving parties the option to undergo
a needs assessment by the RIPE NCC to have documented need where needed.


For the record, I'm going to consider the objection "2013-03 is incompatible
with cross-region transfers" as fully addressed when judging consensus.
